Main stages
Thus, studying the process of drawing a hedgehog step by step, we do it as follows:
- We mark the points.
- Draw a contour starting from the body or head.
- We draw the main elements, remove the extra lines that we drew with a pencil.
- We do shading or use paints to make the image attractive.
The older the child, the more elements can be used. A hedgehog can be drawn among grass, trees, and in the company of other animals. Do everything step by step, explaining to your preschooler why you draw this way. Invite your child to repeat the lines or help by guiding the movements with your hand, so the preschooler will quickly master drawing.

The lesson was developed taking into account the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard for Pre-1st Junior Group “Sad Hedgehog” Purpose: To teach children to make a large ball of plasticine by rolling it up.
Hello, dear colleagues. Let me introduce you to the “Hedgehog” manual. Purpose: to give an idea of the hedgehog, to develop fine motor skills, and aesthetics.
Today I would like to present to your attention a didactic toy - the “Hedgehog” manual. This toy is intended for primary preschool children.
Carrying out the “spring is coming to us” program, I decided to make a hedgehog herbalist together with the children. To do this, I sewed a bag out of gauze, giving it.

Dear colleagues! Our kindergarten is celebrating “Our Animal Friends” week. Conversations were held: “Pets”.
Drawing a hedgehog with autumn gifts in stages:
We draw a large oval in the center of the sheet, which will soon turn into a hedgehog.
On the right side there will be a hedgehog's face. Therefore, we draw two lines to obtain an oblong muzzle with a spout at the end. On the oval itself we draw a line that borders the muzzle from the prickly “fur coat”.
We draw a small ear near the outline, and in the middle of the muzzle we draw the outline of the eye. We also draw a nose and short antennae at the end of the oblong muzzle. We remove the auxiliary lines.
The legs of forest and ornamental hedgehogs are short, so in the drawing they will also be like that. We draw two pairs of legs and immediately draw a horizontal line to obtain the surface on which the hedgehog stands.
We turn the outline of the “fur coat” into solid spines, which we depict in the form of pencil strokes. We detail the paws and muzzle.
On the hedgehog’s prickly “coat” we place autumn gifts of nature - for example, an apple with a leaf and a small pear.
Draw the contours of the hedgehog with fruit with a black marker.
We paint over the side parts of the fruit, small fragments of the legs and face with a yellow pencil.
We complement the remaining white areas of the hedgehog’s body and head with a light brown tone.
Using a brown pencil with a red tint, we create areas of fur on the paws and muzzle. We paint the middle of the ear with a pink pencil, and the fruits and fur coat with a dark pink pencil.
Use a green pencil to paint over the pear and leaf on the apple, as well as the foliage near the hedgehog’s feet. We darken the animal’s “fur coat” with a burgundy pencil color.
Hedgehogs are the cutest creatures and heroes of numerous fairy tales and cartoons. Everyone knows that they are affectionate, very smart and quick-witted animals. Moreover, they are unique animals that have thorns instead of fur. Apart from hedgehogs, only echidnas and porcupines can boast of this. Most often, a cute hedgehog with intelligent beady eyes is depicted stocking up for the winter, with fruits and mushrooms on his back. However, in fact, hedgehogs are predators and feed on insects and small rodents. Another unique feature that these cute animals have is that they are absolutely not susceptible to poisons and even a viper bite is not scary for them. How to draw a hedgehog? Let's look at it in detail. It won’t be too difficult, so even someone who doesn’t know how to draw can draw a hedgehog step by step. You can use school watercolors, colored pencils, and felt-tip pens.
- Since we will be doing this drawing in watercolor, we will need special, thick paper. It absorbs water well and produces wonderful smooth color transitions. For felt-tip pens, on the contrary, it is better to take paper with a smooth surface. You will need a hard sketch pencil and a soft eraser. First, draw the outline of the hedgehog’s body and the apple on his back. The body will look like an oblong drop, the apple will look like a circle.
- Let’s add a sharp muzzle to our animal with a raised nose and paws. Moreover, the front paws will be shaped like the Russian letter “G”, and the hind paws will have one more bone added. It will not be visible at the far paw, since it is covered by the hedgehog’s abdomen.
- Draw a face and an apple. The eye is round and small, the ear is also almost round. Let's finish drawing the button nose and mouth. Let's draw the apple at a slight angle to make it look more natural.
- We mark the color border on the muzzle - from the nose to the upper eyelid. We draw the hedgehog's paws, they have small fingers. Now the thorns. They can be depicted with a sharp zigzag or abrupt lines. The main thing is that they are not in the same direction. The hedgehog’s body is round and plump, so the spines will “look” in different directions. At the top we draw a zigzag, in the middle the spines begin to bend at an angle and on the abdomen they almost look down. We depict them with short strokes.
- Let's start painting with watercolors. The hedgehog's body will be ocher and warm, so we take light ocher, a little orange and yellow. The top of the muzzle will be darker, and closer to the belly we add more water to create a smooth gradient. We draw the paws with exactly the same color. The inside of the hedgehog's ear will be half dark, and the border will be white. We paint an apple in red, green and yellow watercolors. It is also voluminous, don’t forget about that, so leave a small section of the paper unpainted - it will be a highlight. Make one side of the apple a richer red color. Paint the “spiky” area with short strokes using a wide brush. Alternate between painting with a dry brush and a wet one. It is better to take shades of brown, gray and dark orange. Don't be afraid to mix them, let there be multi-colored stains on the paper. We leave some clean areas, and make some darker (the hedgehog’s head, back and tummy).
- We draw a green leaf of an apple and begin to work on the details of the drawing. Using a thin brush and almost black paint (or very dark brown) we make needles. On the top of the hedgehog they will be the darkest and thickest, slightly “overhanging” the muzzle. Using short strokes we draw spines all over the body. They don't have to be even. There will be more of them on the back, and very few on the abdomen. There are no spines on the paws, but outline the toes with light lines. We make the muzzle more expressive and contrasting. To do this, we draw our hedgehog a large black, shiny nose and the same eyes. To show highlights, leave tiny areas of the paper blank. If you accidentally sketched it, it's okay. Highlights can be added with white acrylic or gouache, simply by placing small dots. We make a mustache for the hedgehog and outline the ear.
Nowadays, you can find not only ordinary forest hedgehogs, but also domestic ones. They look very similar to their wild relatives, but have slightly different features that help them live well at home. So let's learn how to draw our favorite hedgehog, which has spines on its back and can also curl up into a prickly ball.
Any drawing begins with a sketch, where it is necessary to determine the overall size of the animal or object, and then move on to drawing large details. If you are drawing a hedgehog, then at the first stage it will be enough to draw a large oval. Gradually, a simple geometric figure will take on a natural appearance, with prickly needles, short legs and an elongated muzzle with small features.
Making the drawing beautiful
Even for children who are learning to make images step by step, they want to make a beautiful and correct drawing. You can start drawing from the head, and only then make the body and additional elements, for example, an apple.
A preschooler will appreciate it if the animal looks attractive and looks like a cartoon character. There is absolutely no need to use complex elements, especially for young children. The main thing is to show and explain to kids what kind of animal it is and how to depict it. The most recognizable parts of a hedgehog's body are the needles; they must be drawn. To do this, you can use a pencil to draw several straight lines extending upward from the body. As a teaching element, you can tell your preschooler why a hedgehog needs needles.
Drawing a hedgehog from the side is much more convenient and familiar, but it is better if you make several options for the image: from the front, from the side, in motion, among the grass, with a mushroom or an apple.
Animals from cartoons are especially popular among children, so your child will probably ask you to draw a hedgehog from Smeshariki with a pencil. This is quite simple to do; it does not require any special elements. If you want to draw it in stages, then first make a circle and draw needles in the form of triangles on top. Additionally, we draw glasses for him and paint them in the desired color. It turns out to be a beautiful hedgehog that your baby will definitely like.
For children, you can draw an outline with a pencil, which they will then paint in the desired color themselves. This will allow the preschooler to participate in the process of creating a picture and show creativity and imagination.
The hedgehog itself is usually painted in gray and brown tones. We make the eyes black. Traditionally, a hedgehog is drawn with mushrooms or apples, which it carries on its needles, although, of course, you won’t see this in nature.
Where to start drawing
In fact, it’s not difficult to portray a hedgehog; it’s enough to do it step by step. We always start a drawing by drawing an outline, outlining the main elements and points. It is convenient to use geometric shapes: circles, ovals, curved lines. For convenience, you can use checkered paper for the first time, and make the next picture on white paper.
As you can see, here is a simple outline, from which the body and head will then be made. All that remains is to finish drawing the eyes, paws, ears and needles.
Even children of preschool age can be taught to draw such a simple image, the main thing is to show them a picture of this animal or a cartoon before doing so. Show your child how to use a pencil correctly. It is better to take a semi-hard one, it does not leave strong streaks and can be easily erased with an eraser.
